4.1 FOR SVU-4, SVU-12, AND SVU-20
4.1.1 Cases Where a Separated Regenerative Discharge Unit Is Not
Required
When the amount of regenerative energy produced [J] never exceeds
the amounts indicated in Table 4.1, a separated regenerative discharge
unit is not required.
For an external connection to be made when a regenerative
discharge unit is not used, see Part V, "CONNECTION", of this
manual.
An incorrect connection can damage the amplifier. Care must be
taken.
